An aside on events at Wisley.
1963?
One afternoon( I think during the school holiday period), I was overlooking the airfield at the Martyr's Green end.
BAC One Eleven G-ASHG turned finals, came very close as a/c did at that end, landed, reverse thrust was selected, the a/c swung off the runway to stbd and disappeared in a cloud of dust.
Port thrust reverser failure?
Does anyone have any info about this incident?
Will look at my log book for the period to determine the date.
